Brian on why he loves God Only Knows: "Because Paul McCartney said it was his favourite song"

"New rule: Having anything to do with the creation of a punk rawk version of "All You Need Is Love" (never with the horn part because lol hornz are silly and dumb) gets you the death penalty. No questions, no trial, it's your fault, pick out your coffin." - runnersdialzero

I hope so too but it seems to be too much of a deep cut for us europeans...

Back at the hotel, what a night! They played PLMW, This Whole World, I JUST WASN'T MADE FORE THESE TIMES, All This is That, Good Timin! Much more deep cuts then I excepted! Brian was not at his best but not at his worst either. He seemed to enjoy it altough he was almost asleep when they played Kokomo I will post videos tomorrow!

a diseased bunch of mo'fos if there ever was one… their beauty is so awesome that listening to them at their best is like being in some vast dream cathedral decorated with a thousand gleaming American pop culture icons.

To sum it up, they blew it, they blew it consistently, they continue to blow it, it is tragic and this pathological problem caused The Beach Boys' greatest music to be so underrated by the general public.

I must say this is the best live performace I've ever seen! I can't sleep so here's some "fun facts" about tonights show:

When they played This Whole World a guy in the audience held up Sunflower. Bruce made thumps up when he saw it. Later when the guy held up Sunflower again in another song, you could se Bruce mime "got it" to him.

Al before California Saga: "This is a song we wrote in Holland...about 3000 years ago or something"

The songs that didn't really worked with the crowd was Betsy and TWGMTR. The songs that got the best response was You´re So Good to Me, I Get Around, Do You Wanna Dance and Fun, Fun, Fun.

Mike took a break in Milan, going off-stage for God Only Knows. I think maybe he just needs to take a break during the longer shows sometimes -- when I saw Mike, Bruce and David in 2008 Mike sat out Disney Girls, too.
